Importance of Reopening Schools
                         ”…the AAP strongly advocates that all policy considerations for the
                         coming school year should start with a goal of having students
                         physically present in school.”

“Policy makers should acknowledge that COVID-19 policies
are intended to mitigate, not eliminate, risk.”                             “Policies to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 within schools
                                                                            must be balanced with the known harms to children,
                                                                            adolescents, families, and the community by keeping children
                                                                            at home.”
“There is a conflict between optimal academic and
social/emotional learning in schools and strict adherence to
current physical distancing guidelines.”
